Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide

This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

The mail is in ~/.thunderbird/default/random-number.slt/Mail/server-name . Save them somewhere safe. The problem is trying to re-integrate them with another Thunderbird profile. You have to rename them as you can't have two files called Inbox or whatever. Then when you open thunderbird you'll find that it still sees the renamed files by their original names so you will have two folders called Inbox. Drag and drop the mail from the backed up folders into the new ones then close Thunderbird, go back into your profile and delete the folders you introduced. Hopefully it won't cause you any problems. If you make a backup copy of the whole ~/.thunderbird folder before you start fiddling you should be safe.
